The HBO Max original dark comedy series Search Party is coming to an end with its fifth and final season today. Search Party is one of those shows that are hard to come by as shows like this largely go unnoticed and underappreciated like it did while it was on TBS, but after the series made its home on HBO Max, the dark comedy series has garnered a big audience for itself. Search Party follows a group of narcissistic millennials who are best at not getting out of their own way. Search Party came to an end with its fifth season in 2022, so we thought we should make a list of the best 10 comedy shows that have a similar comedic style as Search Party, so you could watch the shows after completing the fifth season.
